Five different newspapers in the United States have stopped within the course of a few weeks. The "dilatory conduct of a number of their DISTRICT customers, in not paying up, punctually, their subscription-money," the Editors observe, is a reason sufficient to justify them from proceeding any further.
These printers, "whose want of money prevented them from proceeding any further," were all Jacobins.
I foresee the end of many others. These things are pleasing—as they are striking prognostics of the downfall of the Jacobin or French faction.
